Chapter 478: Once, Present, and Future

Berlin, Germany. The Elector Street was bustling with people and busy. Located here, there is a famous café called Café Einstein. The Einstein Café has a high status in the eyes of Berliners.

Formerly a villa used as a casino, the renovated café has a strong Viennese café style and reopened to the public in 1996. It is an old Renaissance-style villa with a history of 100 years, and it is said that it was originally the private property of an Austrian noblewoman, so the interior environment has always been Viennese.

The apple strudel cake and Wiener fried meat have been hailed as "the best brunch in Berlin". Simple but not simple décor, a retro atmosphere. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow for excellent light inside the café.

The location is also very good. Not to mention the location in the city center, and opposite is the Russian Embassy in Germany, not far from the embassies of the United Kingdom, the United States, France and other countries, as well as a German TV, so many dignitaries and celebrities frequent.

What is less well known is that it was once one of the important "front lines" of intelligence personnel on both the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. There used to be countless spies rushing around this café. There have also been quite a few transactions that have taken place in this café.

At the time, the café was not open to the public. It was opened to the public after 1996. At that time, the giant red bear had fallen for five years.

"Two Oriental faces, it's a little strange to drink coffee here." Hou Dasheng looked at the man in front of him, smiled and said softly, "I thought we should be able to drink tea." After all, we accept tea more than coffee. ”

The man in front of Hou Dasheng put down the coffee cup with a smile and said softly: "When you enter the countryside, you have to learn to follow the customs." Now that you're here, you need to try the flavors of this place. Although the origin of coffee is not actually in Europe and the United States. ”

There were not many people in the café, and no one sat down next to Hou Dasheng and the man. At the table about two meters away from them, hounds and a few silent men in suits sat with their heads bowed. Across the table from them was another group of equally silent men. They were all silent, not having any cups or cutlery in front of them.

They didn't look at each other, nor did they look in the direction of Hou Dasheng. Just bowed his head in silence and didn't say a word. It is different from Hou Dasheng and the man's weightlifting, easy to talk and laugh. What they maintain is a suffocating silence that will make others feel a little frightened. It's like the dark clouds that oppressed the sky before the storm. It makes people breathe heavily.

At the bar in the restaurant, waiters in their fifties diligently wiped cups and plates. But strangely he didn't make a single sound, and he didn't say anything to the two tables of men in black who were almost suffocating.

Of course, they didn't pay even a little attention to Hou Dasheng, who was chatting easily. He was simply wiping down his table and utensils briskly. However, the white cloth in his hand did not cause a sound on the cutlery or the table.

Unlike the silent freehand in the café, the outside of the café is bustling with traffic. Some tourists want to come to this famous café from afar, but the "Rest" sign hanging outside the shop keeps them out. Whenever someone tried to force their way into the café, someone took them out at the right time.

The identities of these people will be silenced by tourists who are impatient or even trying to fight back. Then he left in silence.

"I'm from the Federal Intelligence Agency, and I'm on some special mission here. We ask that you refrain from visiting this café for the time being, and thank you for your cooperation. Hans didn't know that this was the first time that he had been persuaded to leave, but he still patiently said in English: "You can find out my identity, and if you feel that my law enforcement is inappropriate, you are welcome to complain." But you can't tell the outside world what is going on here. Otherwise, we will prosecute and arrest you for the crime of divulging secrets. ”

More than ninety percent of the tourists will nod their heads in panic when they hear Hans say this and leave quickly. Others are confused. Hans, on the other hand, patiently said to the doubtful tourists: "This is the city center, not far from the intelligence bureau. You can go to check my identity and come back if something goes wrong. However, you are not allowed to enter the café at this time. Otherwise, I have the right to use force against you. ”

Whenever this happens, Hans will quietly show off his firearm under his suit. Basically, at this point, they will all leave obediently. In fact, Hans himself did not know what was going on inside. He had only been ordered to ensure that no one was allowed to enter the café until the people inside had left.

What Hans didn't know was that he had a lot of colleagues and non-colleagues lurking around here. They may be in a chair in front of the café opposite, flipping through the newspaper and drinking coffee. Or on the edge of a bench, feeding the pigeons and napping.

There are at least five sniper rifles, observing every move from different heights and angles. And under all this, Hou Dasheng and the man were chatting with coffee easily. They seem so freehand.

"Actually, I'm a little curious, are you sure that our people have the upper hand now?!" Hou Dasheng looked at the man in front of him with a smile and said softly, "Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to sit in front of you now." Of course, I hope to get exact news from you. ”

The man smiled and put down his coffee cup: "It seems that the Hebrews have indeed explained a lot of things to you, and they have been good to you." The Hebrews who came with you were their elite. Several of them have performed a number of tasks. Even if it is compared with the elite of the country on the other side of the ocean, it will not be much worse. ”

"Of course there will be arguments at home, and arguments are always there." The man said softly, "But we are one, and once the argument can be settled, there can be no more arguments." If you pass the test, the rest of the 'family' will not have any opinions. ”

Hou Dasheng didn't speak, picked up the coffee and saluted the man with a smile. The man didn't refuse, smiling and holding up his coffee cup.

"Now that you are qualified to enter the 'home', there are some things I can say openly." The man took a sip of his coffee, put down his cup and said softly, "Actually, we haven't closed the door for you to enter the 'house'. It's just that you never dared to take that step. ”

saw him looking at Hou Dasheng and said softly: "There are too many concerns, those seniors of yours." There was once a man who tried, and he almost succeeded. Just as we were about to recognize him, he chose to retreat and surrender. This disappointed us. Those who do not pass the test are not allowed to enter the 'house'. ”

When Hou Dasheng heard this, he couldn't help but stagnate! He knows this. There was indeed a leader of the jackals, who launched a challenge desperately. In the record, he failed. The jackal was trapped in one place, and the hope of breaking out was almost zero.

In desperation, in order to keep the jackal going, he chose to admit defeat. If you have almost lost all your dignity, ask the service provider for assistance. Of course the jackal existed, and the regimental leader traded his life for the jackal's chance to survive.

"Actually, we were ready to make a hole for the jackals to get out. It's a pity that just when we were ready to endorse him. He got in touch with the service provider. The man sighed lightly and spread his hand, saying, "It's a pity that he's just a little bit of time." Of course, this also has something to do with his improper command. If he hadn't been surrounded, maybe he would have had more options. Maybe we'll hold on until we finally approve of him. ”

Hou Dasheng can say anything but a wry smile?! The regimental commander used his life to leave an impression on the later jackal captains: once this kind of challenge fails, he will lose three liters of blood. It was the lives of himself and other brothers who lost it. Even, it may bury the whole jackal because of it.

"We've been trying to get you to make the right choices again, but you all seem to be terrified." The man spread his hands and sighed, "Without sacrifice, there is no victory." Without flesh and blood, there is no harvest. It is not for nothing that the church was able to successfully replace the ministers of the gods at that time......"

This man's words made Hou Dasheng shudder a little! It occurred to him that the church seemed to rise suddenly. This was followed by a mass expulsion and massacre of other pantheists. There was even a time of extreme darkness when anyone suspected would face hunting down.

"They give, so they get. Without giving, there is no gain. The man looked at Hou Dasheng and said softly: "I also once had nothing, and I also faced tests. That's why I can sit in front of you now......"

After a pause, the man smiled and said, "Of course, if you fail or even die in the test...... That only shows that you only deserve to fail and die. So what else is there to say?! ”

"Okay, let's not talk about these boring topics anymore." The man looked at Hou Dasheng and said softly: "Temptation comes and goes, I have always felt stupid." In fact, there is no need between you and me. What should be told to you, I will tell you. I won't say a word about what I shouldn't say. ”

Hou Dasheng leaned back in his chair and said softly, "Then tell me, what will we gain?!" We...... And what do you need to pay?! ”
